Cell Transport and Plant and Animal Cell Power Point 2013

All cells have a cell membrane made of lipids and proteins that regulates what passes in and out. Plant, fungi, and bacteria cells also have a cell wall outside the cell membrane. The cell membrane acts as a selective barrier (gatekeeper) and uses both passive and active transport. Passive transport moves molecules down a concentration gradient without energy, including diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis. Active transport requires energy to move molecules against a concentration gradient using protein pumps.

Cell Membrane (Transport) Notes

Cell Membrane and Cell Wall:


• ALL cells have a cell membrane made of proteins and lipids
protein channel

• SOME cells have cell membranes and cell walls – ex: plants, fungi
and bacteria

Cell Wall
• Plant cells have a cell wall
made of cellulose – that
cellulose is fiber in our diet

• Bacteria and fungi also


have cell walls, but they
do not contain cellulose

• Cell membranes and cell


walls are porous allowing
water, carbon dioxide,
oxygen and nutrients to
pass through easily
Function of the Cell Membrane:
• Cell membrane separates the components of a cell
from its environment—surrounds the cell
• “Gatekeeper” of the cell—regulates the flow of
materials into and out of cell—selectively permeable
• Cell membrane helps cells maintain homeostasis—
stable internal balance
Passive Transport
A process that does not require energy to move
molecules from a HIGH to LOW concentration

 Diffusion

 Facilitated Diffusion

 Osmosis
• Diffusion is the movement of small particles across a
selectively permeable membrane like the cell membrane
until equilibrium is reached.

These particles move from an area of high concentration


to an area of low concentration.

DIFFUSION

HIGH to LOW concentration


• Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively
permeable membrane like the cell membrane

Water diffuses across a membrane from an area of high


concentration to an area of low concentration.

Semi-permeable
membrane is
permeable to water,
but not to sugar
• Facilitated Diffusion is the movement of larger
molecules like glucose through the cell membrane –
larger molecules must be “helped”
Proteins in the cell membrane form channels for large
molecules to pass through
Proteins that form channels (pores) are called protein
channels

Hypertonic Solutions: contain a high concentration of solute
relative to another solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm). When
a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the water diffuses
out of the cell, causing the cell to shrivel.

Hypotonic Solutions: contain a low concentration of solute


relative to another solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm). When
a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the water diffuses
into the cell, causing the cell to swell and possibly explode.

Isotonic Solutions: contain the same concentration of solute


as another solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm). When a cell is
placed in an isotonic solution, the water diffuses into and
out of the cell at the same rate. The fluid that surrounds the
body cells is isotonic.

Active Transport
Active transport is the movement of molecules from LOW to HIGH
concentration.
Energy is required as molecules must be pumped against the
concentration gradient.
Proteins that work as pumps are called protein pumps.
Ex: Body cells must pump carbon dioxide out into the surrounding
blood vessels to be carried to the lungs for exhale. Blood vessels are
high in carbon dioxide compared to the cells, so energy is required
to move the carbon dioxide across the cell membrane from LOW to
HIGH concentration.

• Endocytosis and Exocytosis is the mechanism by which
very large molecules (such as food and wastes) get into
and out of the cell

Food is moved into the


cell by Endocytosis

Wastes are moved out


of the cell by
Exocytosis
Ex: White Blood Cells, which are part of the immune
system, surround and engulf bacteria by endocytosis.

The Difference Between Plant
and Animal Cells
Animal Cells
• Can not make their own food so they have to
eat food
• Do not go through photosynthesis
• Animal cells are more round shaped
• Animal cells have lysosomes
• Animal cells can not make sugar
• Animal cells use mitochondria to release
energy
Animal cells cont.
• Animal cells do not have a cell wall
• We are all made of animal cells
• Animal cells do not have a large vacuole
• They do not have chloroplast
Similarities of Animal and Plant Cells
• They both have a nucleus
• They both have ribosome's that make protein
• Animal and plant cells both have Golgi bodies
• They both have cytoplasm
• They both have vacuoles that store food,
water and waste products.
Plant Cells
• Plant cells have a cell wall
• Plant cells have a large vacuole unlike the
animal cell
• Plant cells do not have mitochondria
• They also do not have lysosome’s
• Plant cells are in the shape of a rectangle
• Plant cells go through photosynthesis
Plant Cells cont.
• Plant cells have chloroplast
• Plant cells use chloroplast to store energy
• They also have cell membranes
